Verse 1
 
[Am]The pictures tell the story
This [C]life has many shades
[G]I’d wake up every
morning and b[Am]before I’d start each day
I’d [Am]take a drag from last nights cigarette
That [C]smoldered in it’s tray
[G]Down a little something and t[Dm]then be on my way [Am]
 
[Am]I traveled far and wide
And [C]laid this head in many ports
I was [G]guided by a compass
I saw [Am]beauty to the north
[Am]I drew the tales of many lives
And wore the f[C]faces of my own
I had these mem[G]memories all around me
So I [Dm]wouldn’t be alone
 
 
Pre-chorus
 
[C]Some may be from showing up
[G]Others are from growing up
[Dm]Sometimes I was so messed
up and [Am]didn’t have a clue
I ain’t [C]winning no one over
I [G]wear it just for you
[Dm]I’ve got your name written here
 
In a rose tattoo
 
 
Chorus
 
[Am]In a rose tattoo
In a [C]rose tattoo
I’ve got your [Dm]name written here
In a rose t[G]tatt[Am]attoo

Verse 2
 
[Am]This ones for the mighty sea
[C]Mischief, gold and piracy
[G]This ones for the man that raised me
[Am]Taught me sacrifice and bravery
[Am]This ones for our favorite game
[C]Black and gold, we wave the flag
[G]This ones for my family name
With p[Dm]pride I wear it to the grave
 
 
Pre-chorus
 
[C]Some may be from showing up
[G]Others are from growing up
[Dm]Sometimes I was so messed
up and [Am]didn’t have a clue
I ain't [C]winning no one over
I [G]wear it just for you
I’ve got your [Dm]name written here
 
In a rose tattoo
 
 
Chorus
 
[Am]In a rose tattoo
In a [C]rose tattoo
I’ve got your [Dm]name written here
In a rose t[G]tatt[Am]attoo
In a [C]rose tattoo
In a [G]rose tattoo
I’ve got your [Dm]name written here
In a rose tattoo [Am]
 
 
Verse 3
 
[F]This one means the most to me
[C]Stays here for eternity
A [G]ship that always stays the course
An [Am]anchor for my every choice
A [F]rose that shines down from above
I [C]signed and sealed these words in blood
I [G]heard them once, sung in a song
It [G]played again and we sang along

With [G]pride I’ll wear it to the [Am]grave for you
In a [C]rose tattoo
In a [G]rose tattoo
I’ve got your [Dm]name written here,
In a [Am]rose tattoo
In a [C]rose tattoo
In a [G]rose tattoo
Signed and [Dm]sealed in blood I would [Am]die for you
